5.3.2. Global Commercial Production of Lobster & Caribbean Spiny Lobster

Since 1962, average annual global harvest of Caribbean spiny lobster has been less than such harvest for American and rock lobster (Jasus spp.). See Table 5.3.2. Annual global production of Caribbean spiny lobster averages about 54 percent of all spiny lobster production (Panulirus spp. and Palinurus spp.) and about 17 percent of global production of all lobster.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), world capture of Caribbean spiny lobster has greatly increased from 1950 through 2005, starting at a low of 2,957 metric tons in 1950 to 35,540 metric tons in 2005 (http://www.fao.org/fishery/species/3445). Twice annual global production has exceeded 40,000 metric tons; and since 1984, annual global production has varied between 30,000 and 41,000 metric tons. See Figure 5.3.2.


Among the countries that harvested Caribbean spiny lobster from 1996 through 2005 and reported those landings to the FAO, the Bahamas had the largest average annual landings, followed by Cuba, Brazil, Nicaragua, and the United States. See Figure 5.3.3 and Table 5.3.3. U.S. imports of frozen spiny lobster represented an average of 87 percent of reported annual Caribbean spiny lobster landings from countries other than the U.S. and Cuba. See Figure 5.3.4.
